Cleanout Door Cut In Skid Steer Frame

Cleanout Door Cut In Skid Steer Frame TRACTORS Maintenance 45 Indiana crop and livestock farmer Simon Oyler has a simple way to clean out trash dirt and other materials from inside the pan of his and his dad’s L220 and L230 skid steer loaders “Instead of having to vacuum or blow out all the crud from inside the chassis I cut a small trap door on the front of the frame where the hydrostatic motors are Now I can blow out or wash out the debris then replace the plate cover until it’s time to clean it again ” After cutting the frame Oyler made a plate to cover the opening then drilled tap holes and screwed the cover in place “It’s a simple idea that doesn’t affect the machine operation ” Oyler says “Now when we tip up the cab to clean the machine we remove the cover and cleanout is very easy ” Contact: FARM SHOW Followup Simon Oyler Delphi Indiana
